I'm toying with the idea of a f2.8 70-200mm undecided on Canon or Sigma yet, but this thing looks very bulky, has anyone ever traveled with these lenses? I'm sure I would certainly love the lenses but just wanted to get someones thoughts on the practicalities with using them whilst travelling.

My other thought was just to shoot with my 24-105mm and then mix it up with a wide angle 10-22mm to create some cool angles.

Hi Richie, I've done a lot of travelling and for me the most valuable lens is a very wide angle zoom.

Looking at your setup, the widest you have is 24-105mm, which on a cropped body isn't very wide.

So I'd get the Canon 10-22mm, which would be a superb complement to your 24-105. It's also not that big.

A 70-200 f2.8 is very large and heavy. I'd only take it if I were shooting portraits or sports every day! If you don't need the f.28 aperture, consider the 70-300mm L lens. It's still not exactly small, but it does have more reach.

But for me with your kit and trip, i'd definitely get the 10-22. Perfect for landscapes, architecture, interiors etc.
